My kids LOVE Keens. They wear like iron and go seamlessly from camping, the lake and the pool to well, dare I say that my son even wears them to church on occasion! I typically buy 1/2 size up and then they can wear them for a bit longer, plus I think Keens run a tad small. My kids like the fact that the H2 sandal has a covered heel as opposed to a heel strap. We like how the polyester webbing holds its color and integrity. Have never tried a leather version in adults or kids.

Keen's wear like iron and I loved the rice bag/recycled look plus the covered toe for a flip flop was a big bonus for trips to the lake. I wear a 7.5 med and that's what I ordered. I've heard Keen's run a half size small so perhaps that was my problem, but in summary, the plastic piece that goes inbetween your toes was set too far back in the shoe, so when I tried to slide my foot into place where my toes would be protected, it was very uncomfortable. Just didn't fit my foot. Perhaps I have odd feet?

I was really excited about these sandals for a number of reasons. I liked the covered toe/flip flop idea for wearing at the lake -- more rugged than a traditional flip flop with toe-stubbing protection. I am a classic 7.5 med and I never stray from that size. Received these and the plastic piece that goes between your toes is way too tight and "short." In order for them to feel comfortable I was practically stepping off the back of the sandal. I loved the design integration of the rice bags. Wish they fit!!! I sent them back.
